Artist Talks | Three Artists. Three Women.

Significance: The Princeton University Art Museum presents a very special series of artists’ talks this fall.

The season begins with Pat Steir—long one of the most important abstract painters on the New York scene—whose work is currently on view at the Museum in two important new acquisitions. Teresita Fernández, a leading contemporary artist, is highlighted in A Material Legacy: The Nancy A. Nasher and David J. Haemisegger Collection of Contemporary Art.

Internationally acclaimed Pakistani-American artist Shahzia Sikander will be featured this fall in an exhibition of contemporary South Asian art, as well as in two monumental new commissions on campus.

With a collecting history that extends back to the 1750s, the Princeton University Art Museum is one of the leading university art museums in the country, with collections that have grown to include over 97,000 works of art ranging from ancient to contemporary art and spanning the globe.

Committed to advancing Princeton’s teaching and research missions, the Art Museum also serves as a gateway to the University for visitors from around the world. Intimate in scale yet expansive in scope, the Museum offers a respite from the rush of daily life, a revitalizing experience of extraordinary works of art and an opportunity to delve deeply into the study of art and culture.

The Princeton University Art Museum is located at the heart of the Princeton campus, a short walk from the shops and restaurants of Nassau Street. Admission is free. Museum hours are Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Thursday 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.; and Sunday 1 to 5 p.m. The Museum is closed Mondays and major holidays.
